BROTHERLY RIVAL

BROTHERLY RIVAL
 
Boldly, brothers battle for bragging rights
Nigeria and Ghana, neighbors in night
Gigantic egos clash, a game of might
Healthy rivalry, or so it's in sight.4

Music, movies, memorable moments;
These brothers bit-in on each other's boats.
Nimble Nigerians navigate noble norms,
Ghanaians gaze, green with envy's forms8

Raucous rivalry reigns, a roaring storm
Eager eagles eye each other's form
Naija ninjas, the

My Rival In Love

O my glorious rival in love,
For I fell in the cosmic river of yours. 
I flew in the rhythm of darkness within, 
For finding my light in glorious you. 

I played my flute for you to sing, 
For me to dance, in rhythm of your within. 
For my eternal resides in cosmic you,
for your love

Rival Brews

Local breweries abound
And in New York there can be found
Beers from Brooklyn and from Queens
And all the boroughs in-betweens.

My spouse and I, both city-born,
Love I.P.A.’s, so we were torn
About which brew would be the best,
So we devised a little test.

We purchase bottles and some cans
To see if we’d be equal fans
Of breweries from Brooklyn (me)
Or

The Male Rival

est-ce qu ils me
bloquent?
the assumption 
the muse is her lover
the best muses end up
unloved
with nothing at all
I refuse to be anything
except her man
her lover, companion
her all!

mimica!

fah,lah,lah?

tutti insieme?
ah: vah e un ritmo

That Mate Sees Me a Rival But the Feeling Is Not Mutual

People want to pull me downtown Lester Brown 
they wear sandals on their feet and my head wears a crown 
prizes in their wicked eyes a cricket wicket bouncing highs 
inside I’m a lion pride and they’re all pesky little flies 
they land they bite but I don’t die never will  but still they

Saudi Arabia is also being courted by Red China and Russia. And President Biden's over seas visits were not successful at least as far as I currently know. It has been said that he botched his visit to Saudi Arabia.

Cuba is an island nation just a few miles off of the coast of Florida. Red

Arrival of a Rival

Screwed up eyes and a huge flush
By one fending off a blush,
After the surest glimpse of Her Crush
With an Eve of enveloping lush;
Something in her beginning to crash
Tony to no more escape a tongue-lash!

Her oval face soon the fullest flush,
At which no sensible man will rush,
It presuming to be about some thrush;
The very thought and

Gods Hell Fire For Weevil

God’s hell fire for weevil 
Like his final for the Devil, 
For the weevil is equally evil 
To our rice never civil 
And to its consumers a rival 
Always some marvel 
How it ends its travel 
In the sealed bags it quarters 
And the grain of rice it scatters! 

I grant the weevil is insect

The Rival We Don'T Notice England Scotland

Scotland sees England as their biggest rival
the nation to beat down and torture. 
but down here in England we see the Scots 
as our neighbours just north of the border.

we view our rivals as Argies or Germans 
and the French just south of the water, 
we don't see the Scots with the hate that they've

Under the Stirs

It sits under my stairs,
It's been there a few weeks,
Growing more each day,
I put it off and do other stuff,
I hate that thing under my stirs.

I pass it ever day knowing it's there,
Mentaly asking it "to please go away",
I try to block it out as much as I can,
There comes that day and it has

Premium MemberThe Dam War

While floating in a tranquil way 
Green and yellow ducklings had a lot to say 
They swam up and down the stream 
Living the dream 
Showing formation as a family team 
Until one day there was an interruption 
Beaver, Inc. building corruption 
“What is this?!” 
Lead duck did hiss 
“It’s a dam,” 
Said construction fore

Best Rival

You bloomed earlier just to annoy me, 
You started fighting even when I was kid, 
Your words showered like pots and pans, 
Albeit you are with me.... 

You smashed me like berries.. 
We do have war for every simple things,
You dare to touch my things,
Just to start wrestling match.... 

If you are north I am

Or it doesn't
Either way things

To the final end
A last showdown
Gun fight style
